Jesus Died For You Lyrics - Charlie Daniels Band

You may be down, you may be out 

With nothing to be glad about 

But you can stand right up and shout 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

You may think that you can't cope 

You may be drunk or hooked on dope 

Believe me brother, you've still got hope 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

Maybe you ain't got a dime 

You're standing in the welfare line 

Or maybe you're in prison doin' your time 

But Jesus died for you 

Satan may have you in retreat 

But you won't go down in defeat 

'Cause you can sittin' in the mercy seat 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

He died for you, to complete salvation's plan 

He died for you, He's got nail scars in His hands 

He bore the cross, to sanctify the lost 

All you've got to do is believe it 

Get down on your knees and receive it 

You may think you're too far gone 

You've sinned so bad you can't atone 

But bow your head and come on home 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

This old world keeps falling apart 

But you don't have to let it break your heart 

You can make a brand new start 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

Now Satan is a mighty foe 

But just stand firm because you know 

You've got a better place to go 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

When there's trouble in the wind 

Or when you face the bitter end 

You can start all over again 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

You can face death with a smile 

Laugh at all your troubles and trials 

Never have to walk another lonely mile 

Jesus died for you 

He died for you, to break the Devil's hold 

He died for you, to redeem your mortal soul 

Don't be afraid, 'cause you debt has done been paid 

You just come and do your best 

The Holy Spirit's gonna do the rest 

He died for you, to complete salvation's plan 

He died for you, He's got nail scars in His hands 

He bore the cross, to sanctify the lost 

All you've got to do is believe it 

Get down on your knees and receive it 

Makes no difference how wrong you've been 

How heavy is your load of sin 

The door's still open come on in 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

Now you may think you're too far gone 

You've sinned so bad you can't atone 

Bow your head and come on home 

'Cause Jesus died for you 

Jesus died for you 

Jesus died for you
